Bible • Crossing the Red Sea | The Crossing of the Red Sea by Nicolas Poussin【Bible 14】

The story of the Israelites' escape from Egypt, led by Moses, is vividly captured in both scripture and art. After freeing the Israelites, Pharaoh pursued them with his army, trapping them by the Red Sea. God commanded Moses to part the waters, allowing the Israelites to cross on dry ground. When Pharaoh’s army followed, the waters returned, drowning them.This miraculous event inspired Nicolas Poussin’s painting, “The Crossing of the Red Sea”, now in the National Gallery of Victoria. Poussin's detailed composition shows Israelites celebrating while retrieving armor from the Egyptians. His work reflects not only divine intervention but also the uncertainties of the Israelites' journey ahead.--If you enjoy our content, feel free to treat us to a cup of coffee.http://buymeacoffee.com/throughtheages--Welcome to our YouTube channel!www.youtube.com/@ThroughtheAgesArt
